Welcome to Construction and the Built Environment

Our Construction and Built Environment (CBE) programmes are developed in collaboration with the UK construction industry and professional bodies. Ensuring the course content is relevant to the current needs of the industry will make you highly desirable to employers upon graduation.

When you study on a CBE course at Leeds Trinity, you’ll receive practical industrial experience and will be taught by subject experts and guest tutors who will support you through your academic journey. Our teaching staff are also world-leading researchers who have interests in a wide range of contemporary areas including sustainability, net zero and other topical issues in the construction industry.

One of our key strengths is our student support. We take pride in preparing you for your career from the moment you join us. You will work with a personal tutor and have access to industry mentors to ensure that when you leave us, you will be able to take your place in the world with confidence and the ability to positively impact those around you.

Our Construction and the Built Environment programmes sit within the highly successful Leeds Trinity University Business School.
